Kelsey Grammer is a classics man.

“I’m someone who makes it a point to read a little each day,” Grammer, whose new publication, “Karen: A Brother Remembers,” is currently available, shares with Page Six. He continues, “I’ll pick up a book at random or one I’m familiar with and have read before, and skim through it for a while.”

The “Frasier” star adds, “I also read the Bible every day.”

See below for Grammer’s six must-read books.


"A Passage to India" by E. M. Forster

“An extraordinary juxtaposition of cultures and affection — with the Marabar Caves being my favorite aspect of the story. The reflection of a flame that touches and then disappears.”



The Bible

“The Bible has been a reference book for me about life and the things we face. The history of man’s search for where he belongs in the universe.”



"Tom Jones" by Henry Fielding

“It was the most significant experience of my life. I have immense admiration for Henry Fielding. The book is filled with frivolity, fullness, and mischievousness, celebrating life and the human condition. It embodies life, laughter, and struggles.”



"Karen: A Brother Remembers" by Kelsey Grammer

“Writing ‘Karen’ was a mission, something I had to finish. As I look at the book now, I can say it’s a work that I am very proud of.”



"Moby Dick" by Herman Melville

“A look into a piece of history that is so specific you feel like you are out in the water with him and fighting the whale with him and fighting the whale within ourselves.”



"Where Angels Fear to Tread" by E. M. Forster

“Another E. M. Forster book [that] I also mention in my own book, ‘Karen.’ How an English tenor will never soar like an Italian tenor. The English tenor just the slightest bit pinched, and he expressed that as a metaphor for the English culture.”
